‏ Jeremiah 25:12-14

Verse 12. And that nation] haggoi hahu. Dr. Blayney contends that this should be translated his nation, and that hahu is the substantive pronoun used in the genitive case. It is certainly more clear and definite to read, "I will punish the king of Babylon, and HIS nation."

Will make it perpetual desolations] See Clarke on Isa 13:19, where the fulfilment of this prophecy is distinctly marked.

Verse 14. Many nations and great kings] The Medes and the Persians, under Cyrus; and several princes, his vassals or allies.
